Nagarjuna's son Akhil Akkineni gets married to Zainab Ravdjee in Hyderabad

Tollywood star Akhil Akkineni marries longtime girlfriend Zainab Ravdjee in star-studded traditional Telugu wedding ceremony

"Found my forever. Happy to announce that Zainab Ravdjee and I are happily engaged - Akhil Akkineni"

Hyderabad, June 6

Akhil Akkineni, son of superstar Nagarjuna, married his longtime girlfriend Zainab Ravdjee in Hyderabad on Friday.

The marriage ceremony was a star-studded affair as many renowned celebrities attended the event.

Akhil's brother, Naga Chaitanya, was also present at the wedding ceremony in Hyderabad. The wedding followed traditional Telugu-style wedding ceremony rituals.

As per the viral photos, Akhil wore a simple shirt, while his better half, Zainab, was seen in an ivory saree matched with diamond jewellery. Other celebrities who attended the wedding included Ram Charan, Chiranjeevi, and Prashanth Neel.

The wedding of Akhil Akkineni came over six months after the actor announced his engagement to his longtime girlfriend Ravdjee through an Instagram post.

"Found my forever. Happy to announce that Zainab Ravdjee and I are happily engaged," wrote Akhil Akkineni while announcing his engagement.

This is the second marriage in superstar Nagarjuna's family in recent years. Last year, the actor's son, Naga Chaitanya, got married to his girlfriend, actress Sobhita Dhulipala, in a traditional Telugu wedding ceremony.

For the special occasion, Sobhita opted for a gold Kanjivaram silk saree with real gold zari, honouring her cultural roots. She elevated her look with temple jewellery.

Nag Chaitanya also looked handsome in a traditional white outfit. The couple officially announced their relationship in August this year by sharing photos from their engagement ceremony.

"What could my mother be to yours? What kin is my father to yours anyway? And how did you and I meet ever? But in love our hearts are as red earth and pouring rain: mingled beyond parting," wrote the couple in a joint post, while quoting a translated text from A K Ramanujan's Kurunthogai.

Naga Chaitanya was previously married to actress Samantha Ruth Prabhu. They announced their separation on social media in a joint statement in October 2021.

Wishing the lovely couple a lifetime of happiness! ❤️ The Akkineni family weddings always showcase such beautiful Telugu traditions. Zainab looked absolutely stunning in that ivory saree - reminds me of my own sister's wedding in Vijayawada last year!

Another Akkineni wedding, another display of South Indian royal splendor! But honestly, I wish they'd show more of the actual rituals rather than just celebrity photos. Our Telugu wedding customs are so rich and meaningful - would be great for younger generations to see.

So happy for Akhil! Been following his career since his debut. Interesting to see how both Nagarjuna's sons have chosen non-film industry partners. Maybe they want to keep some normalcy in their personal lives amidst all the stardom. Smart move!

The Akkineni family weddings are becoming an annual event now! 😄 First Chaitanya, now Akhil. Beautiful to see them maintaining traditions while keeping it elegant. Though I must say, Akhil's simple shirt was refreshing - not every groom needs heavy embroidery!

As a Hyderabadi, I'm so proud to see our city hosting these beautiful celebrity weddings! The blend of modern and traditional in both Akkineni brothers' weddings sets such a good example. Also, temple jewellery is making such a strong comeback - love to see it!

While the wedding looks beautiful, I hope the media gives the couple some privacy now. Indian celebrities deserve personal space after their big day. The constant coverage can be overwhelming for any newlyweds, famous or not.
